ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION (CONT.)
4. Drive 4/5” screws into the top of the accordion panel
frame and the top rail to securely attach the window air
conditioner to the lower sash. (See FIG. 10 & 11)
5.
To secure the lower sash into place, use the sash lock
and a 3/4” screw as shown below (See FIG. 12)
6.
For added insulation, cut the supplied insulation foam
to the width of the window. Insert the foam between the
window sashes to prevent air and objects from getting
into the room. (See FIG. 13)
IF AC is Blocked by a Storm Window
A storm window frame will not allow the air conditioner to
tilt properly which in turn will keep it from draining properly.
To adjust for this, attach a board or piece of wood to the
sill. The board or wood piece should have a depth of at
least 1 1/2”. Make sure the board or piece of wood is ap-
proximately 1/2” higher than the storm window frame. This
will allow the air conditioner to tilt enough for proper drain-
age. (See FIG. 12).
Removing the Air Conditioner from the
Window
1. Turn the air conditioner off, and disconnect the power
cord.
2. Remove the sash seal from between windows, and
unscrew sash lock.
3. Remove the screws installed through the frame and
frame lock.
4. Close (slide) the side panels into frame.
5. Keeping a firm grip on air conditioner, raise the sash
and carefully “rock” air conditioner backward to drain
any condensate water in base of unit. Be careful not to
spill any remaining water while lifting unit from window.
6. Store parts WITH the air conditioner in the box
